“That’s right, here you go.” Leaning back on the sofa, he made a gesture of ‘waving his hand’.
Yu Linfeng couldn't believe it.
"Hmm, you don't want it?"
"No...no...this is too sudden." She blinked, as if she were having a dream.
This old man is quite adorable.
Although everyone is very serious when discussing issues in parliament, behind the scenes, they are just a bunch of old men.
Qin Che said, "The Eastern Party will hinder my reforms, but the path to the kingdom's revival cannot afford any mistakes. All the government agencies and institutions of the First Wall must obey the new king's decree for reorganization and modification. Next, I will dismiss a number of redundant personnel. Tell me, what should we pay attention to?"
Yu Linfeng frowned and said, "Abolish the council? That... is inappropriate."
His tone was light and casual, with a hint of caution.
He was afraid Qin Che would be displeased.
But peeking up, he saw Qin Che's serious and focused expression, so he could only say, "A ship that has been adrift at sea for two hundred years, getting the people on board ashore won't be so simple. There will be countless protesters, including ethnic representatives in the council and powerful financial groups. Their industries support the First Wall, which has remained unchanged for so many years, so naturally they don't want to restore the old system. Besides... they are all descendants of the people who overthrew the kingdom..."
"So?" Qin Che leaned forward.
"The road to the restoration of the kingdom, in my view, will be accompanied by blood and death." He couldn't help but sigh as he said this.
Qin Che said, "A two-hundred-year-old ship is a broken ship. Apart from repairs, it can't sail very far anymore. It can only be overturned and burned. I understand how difficult this path is, but what you said makes me feel more at ease."
"What would you do?" Yu Linfeng asked curiously.
"First, we should guarantee the voice of minority groups. Give slave trade and some low-end industrial chains enough preferential treatment and support, and I believe they will give in. As for the financial magnates, they should hand over all their assets. With the new tax system, I will have the National Taxation Bureau stationed at Wall One to achieve an initial victory and then let them get used to it. Of course, the newly formed military will provide some cooperation."
Yu Linfeng swallowed hard; sweat was already seeping from his back.
tax……
This is a metal plate.
The council of elders has remained unchanged for many years, and it is difficult to even take a step forward.
This young regent actually wants to take a bite out of the tycoons' profits.
Of course, he has the ability.
However, if the zaibatsu unite, they can be just as troublesome as those in the No. 1 wall.
"Even if it means bringing Wall One to a complete standstill, we'd spare no expense?"
"Yes, at any cost." He nodded firmly, his gaze deep and focused.
...
The East Party's protests began.
The resistance was particularly fierce after they became certain that the new royal representative would overthrow them and reform the tax system.
Wall One began daily, uninterrupted marches and banner protests.
Citizens formed columns and marched through the streets, chanting in unison against royal reforms and the abolition of the parliamentary system—nothing more than the democratic rhetoric.
Although it is obvious to everyone that democracy is a dead end and will only make Lingbi City more and more cowardly.
Today, warlords, regimes, and various violent organizations are carving up the desert, and wars are constant, while Lingbi City, as the ruling party, is still playing the democracy game. Isn't that ironic?
Might needs to be overthrown.
Don't forget, they also have an enemy stirring up trouble in the north, attempting to win over dozens of cities and instigate war.
By then, even more people will die.
The so-called parliament will be overthrown by violence.
While Qin Che was busy handling important matters at Wall One, the armies from Sand Castle, Old City, and other places had arrived in the western border, along with the royal guards. All units were ready, and the officers met with Sha Qingsui in West Castle and visited the West Castle military camp.
Qin Che carried out a military reform of the Self-Defense Forces in the old city.
The focus was on the military administrative system, specifically the establishment of the 'Military Administration Office'.
This department was established after Qin Che took the lead in leading Sandcastle, and its operations have become relatively stable since then.
This is inseparable from the efforts of veteran gerbil and Chen Fusheng.
They found a group of capable personnel for the Military Administration Department to be in charge of the army's internal administration and ideological education.
This is a new recruit.
They know who they are fighting for.
Little Stone's first visit to the Western Border was marked by his intense gaze, which took in everything about the city—its prosperity, its peace—and he felt a sense of familiarity with it.
She knew this was the city managed by the master, and like Sandcastle, although she couldn't quite put her finger on it, she could feel the same atmosphere as Sandcastle.
Unity.
Little Stone is a new recruit, but her status is different from that of ordinary soldiers.
First, she is a newly minted superhuman.
Secondly, she was the master's personal attendant.
She had been by the master's side since he was still in Sand Castle. As a senior member, even the officers treated her with great kindness.
After nearly a month of training in the military, although the time was short, Xiao Shitou showed great talent and was able to use her special abilities quite skillfully. She also learned assassination, firearms, and other skills in the military, which helped her improve her physical fitness. She was completely different from the thin little girl she used to be and had a brand new look.
She became a bodyguard.
The person she most wanted to see during her trip with the army was the master.
Is the master really here?
"It's a pity he's not here. The master left a few days ago and should be inside that wall now, taking care of his important business."
Chen Da, now the First Commander of the Sandcastle Spring Soldiers and concurrently the Military Director, pointed to the towering, terrifying wall in the distance and was filled with emotion.
